Not long after, the convoy led a huge contingent of civilians and embarked on the dilapidated official road again.

Most of the land in the northwest is barren, the climate is dry and rainless, the products are not abundant, the people are poor, and the border is barbaric, and there are few brigades of merchants. If it is not where the border guards are located, and they need to support logistics from time to time, these official roads have long since been abandoned.

In the past three or two days, there were no people on the Northwest official road. It took only a long time. The convoy had already encountered several groups of pedestrians and drivers. Most of them were families with a little wealth. With the family belongings, follow in fear.

"Go and ask, what's the situation in the capital?" Li Xian frowned, seeing the fleeing posture, most of them came from the southeast, probably most of the barbarians had surrounded the capital.

After half a moment, Shiping hurried over with a sad-faced middle-aged man.

"My lord, this is Liu Siku from Chunli County, Gyeonggi-do. Because of the barbarians besieging the capital, he and his family and the whole family abandoned their hometown and ran to the clansmen in Longyou. It is said that there are [-] barbarians in the army. Everyone, sneaking over the pass and suddenly appearing at the foot of the capital, the imperial guards of the capital were invincible, so they had to seal the city and defend it. Before the army of Qin Kings from all walks of life arrived, counting from the time they left, if the siege of the city was still unsolved, it would have been ten days. "

Li Xian's expression gradually faded, and he turned his head and said, "Ah Heng, ask him carefully, how is it?"

"Here."

Li Xian'er listened to that Liu Treasurer respond to Zhong Heng's inquiry, crying with snot and tears about the difficulties and dangers of the whole family running away, it was not because he abandoned the land and left without authorization, It's true that even the mighty [-] imperial guards are afraid of the barbarian, how dare he touch the hard rock?

Those who ran away on hearing of the news like them were considered lucky. Those poor people behind had no news, and secondly, livestock with no substitute feet. They were lucky to be able to escape naked. There were heavy casualties, and more people were taken captive like pigs and sheep...

When it came to the end, it was already sobbing, and Zhongheng asked him how many generals he had, how he fought against the imperial army, etc., but the treasurer was dumbfounded, whether he was in the east or west, most of it was hearsay Words.

But these military and political matters are not clear to a lowly official like him who has lost his family and his life. He was frightened when he saw the barbarian from a distance, so how could he know what to ask about the military situation?

After Liu Treasurer left, Li Xian was a little silent, Zhong Heng held the reins tightly, let the horse go for a while, and suddenly laughed bitterly: "Hey!... Defend the family and the country. I don't know if this country can still be a country? "

Look at the dozens of guards in the convoy. Although they have sharp weapons, they have experienced a few battles and have experienced a brave spirit.

Then look at the thousands of poor people around who followed the group to the northwest wholeheartedly. Their faces changed when they heard the news of Manhu, and everyone panicked. This group of people can be scared and run away.

What can these dozens of guards do?Go to the capital to be the king of Qin, the emperor who is good at killing Zhongliang and trusting traitors?

What's more, he is no longer the major general of the Zhong family, he is just a loyal slave under Ah Xian's command, and the only ones he wants to protect are Ah Xian, his relatives, and the helpless people around him.

"If you are poor, you will be good for yourself, and if you are rich, you will be good for the world." Master Li let out a long breath, steered his horse forward, and said to the angry future general: "It is a great kindness to be able to protect the person who wants to be protected. We are such rags It would be nice if you can protect yourself, the emperor, of course he has his loyal generals to protect him, not to mention..."

Li Xian looked at Zhong Er with a strange expression, heck, there is such a sturdy old man in our family, the emperor is lucky, but, probably, the old emperor has only been around for a few days?

In the previous life, the capital was besieged for more than half a month, and there was a miserable wind and rain inside and outside the city.

The imperial guards are glamorous and useless. The city guard Shan Hu was originally the third-generation grandson of the founding veteran Shan Xi. He is known as the son of a general.

When the enemy army first arrived and was supposed to seal the gate, he attacked outrageously. He was beaten to the point that thousands of riders were wiped out, and he was so frightened that he fled back to the city, not daring to open it again.When the enemy was exhausted and lacked food, the logistics were poor, and there seemed to be conflicts between the several tribes, this general Shan did not dare to attack the enemy. A place that can be assaulted.

Back in the dark prison, Li Xian listened to the terrified guards talking about it, cursing that "Shan Huhu" must be Man Hu's traitor inserted in my Han people, so he dedicated himself to Man Hu!Could it be that he wants to make a great contribution and marry a Saohu lady as his son-in-law?

At that time, he was also scared to death in the black prison. He listened to the nonsense nonsense, only knew that the man-hulls who wanted to eat human flesh were coming, and he was suffering for several days waiting to die, thinking that if the man-beards really killed him When he entered the capital, he had to kill himself first anyway, and he couldn't feed these livestock with a pile of good meat.However, I was shocked three times a day in prison, before the Hu people came to the capital, but Zheng Qing and the others risked their lives to save each other, and ended in a sad end.

He was in a daze, his heart was numb and empty, and he was imprisoned back to the black prison. Suddenly, he heard the cheers in the city startled like a tsunami, but there was chaos in the barbarian formation. All tribes suddenly fought each other, and then dispersed in a hurry.

When all the people were overwhelmed with surprise and celebrating their escape, the old emperor died of a long illness and finally died in shock and surprise.

The foreign enemies are gone, and the throne is important, this group of dragon sons and grandsons suddenly cheered up, causing the capital to be full of smog.

Even Li Xian, a resident of the black prison, could vaguely hear something: Zhou Zheng, the king of Chenliu who was staying in Beijing for the emperor's illness, said that the emperor left his will to inherit the great line; , angrily reprimanded King Chenliu for his false decree to deceive the country, he deserved death; the leader of the imperial guards made him act like a barbarian so that he could scare himself to piss, and there was a lot of internal troubles, but he could "hold the pearl of wisdom", left and right Swing to the right, stand still, make up your mind who is more dragon-like, and then place a bet.

The Li Xiang of his family who killed relatives righteously was silent and did not stand in line.

At that time, although King Chen Liu was extremely favored by the emperor in the past, his reputation was not right, and he had all the imperial edicts in his hand. He was supported by a group of officials who wanted to follow Long Weiye and bet early. The prince, who was also supported by King Uncle Jin, was evenly matched.

However, everyone made a fuss, but it came to nothing.

King Zhoudun of Hejian recruited an army of [-] troops, supported by Liu Qi, a frontier general.What's more, he brought a big news——

General Zhongsu Zhong didn't surrender to the enemy, but tried his best to lurk in the court of the Turkic king. A few days ago, he shocked the world with a single blow and assassinated the Turkic king Ashina Zheyin. , There was chaos one after another, and they returned to the barbaric lands one after another in order to fight for the kingship.

Under Zhou Dun's eloquent description, General Zhong endured humiliation, did not hesitate to serve the country's reputation, followed his tricks, and followed his tricks to hide from the enemy.

Where is the evidence?

And look at King Hejian following closely behind him, wearing a bronze mask and looking as imposing as Shura, Young General Zhong!

Whether General Zhongsu was sent by the King of Hejian or not, no one dared to question under Bingfeng's pointing.

Afterwards, Zhou Dun ordered people to capture Uncle King Jin in public, and angrily reprimanded him for being a traitor to the country and a barbarian despite being favored by the emperor.There is a mountain of iron evidence, a pile of witnesses' testimonies, and even letters related to Man Hu, proving that it is this Uncle King Jin who colluded with Man Hu to "sell privately" the pass, allowing Man Hu to sneak through, and enter the Central Plains as if there was no one there. Realm!

Under the uproar of the public, the prince Zhou Jing, who was fully supported by Uncle Jin, was suspected, and he was accused of colluding with the harem to kill the late emperor.

The remaining King Chen Liu was stared to death by Zhou Dun, without the help of the military, and his mother and concubine were involved in the crime of treason, how could there be a chance to stand up?

Like the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves, King Chen Liu's party members scattered and hastily cast another vote. Zhou Jing himself was thrown into Tingwei Prison, where he became cellmates with Li Xian.Within a few days, I heard that the proud son of heaven, who was as famous as the sun in the past, died silently in the prison, without even a splash of waves.

The leader of the imperial army, Yu Weiyi, expressed the great achievements of Hejian Wangqin in a stern speech, and stood firmly beside the winner. In the first half, he made a silent and stern face. At this time, righteousness stood up to defend the orthodoxy of Hejian King. So far, Who the new emperor is, there is no longer any suspense.

Later, Li Xian thought about it, the two brothers who competed with Zhou Dun but lost miserably in the same field, only died and ended differently. It was probably because Zhou Dun was bullied by the arrogant King Chen Liu back then, and the autumn queen settled the old score. The prince was aloof and disdainful, and he didn't bother that poor little Zhou Dun much.

However, the title of Prince Abandoned is a reminder.

But in three or two months, it is said that the deposed prince died in depression, leaving no son and half daughter behind...

Zhoudun, the former King of Sunset and Hejian, became Emperor Yuanhe, and ascended the throne on top of the ruins.

The former eldest son Li in the black prison welcomed back the unbearable injustice in his life.

***

After waking up from the painful memories of his previous life, Li Xian was not willing to talk to those around him, so he snorted coldly and ordered: "... let's go!"

As soon as the northwestern accent came out, Master Li was stunned and a little bit annoyed.

He has a problem. After staying with people with that accent for a long time, he tends to turn his tone of voice. Back then, Zhong Daxian's weird tone made his accent unsightly. The tune of the husband is sung.

After walking another ten miles along the official road, Li Xian followed the map and ordered the crowd to travel diagonally to the southwest. After walking four or five miles, they saw the big lake that Liao Laoliu mentioned.

Under the bright sun, the waves are sparkling, and the aquatic plants and reeds are lush in the water by the lake, but there is a circle of rocky beaches along the coast, which can't be seen at a glance.As far as the eye can see, there is some barren soil between the rock cracks, and some slender weeds grow, weak and windy, and farther away are rocky mountains and bare rocks, rare trees with crooked necks growing on them, which are also strangely shaped.

"This kind of good water has no good soil. I can't complain that there are no people living around. This rocky beach can't grow crops, and I'm afraid the grass won't survive a few. I don't know if there are any big fish in the lake. My son, you have been doing it for a few days. There is no fresh fish to eat."

He Laoqi looked at the surface of the water to see if there were any traces of fish. There were a few water ducks floating on the surface of the lake, so there must be some fish.

Li Xian nodded, with some doubts in his heart, he compared the map, there was a group of yellow spots behind the barren rocks on the rocky mountain, probably there were hundreds of people, but now he walked closer, but he couldn't see the slightest sign of the village, really Strange too!

"...Ake, help me find out, what are those yellow dots?"

Li Xian murmured in a low voice, and was about to invite Zhong Daxian, when he saw that on the map, those yellow dots slowly drew a thin line, and several yellow dots squeezed out from the cracks in the rocky mountain.

Master Li stared dumbfoundedly at the rocky mountain slowly opening a gap, several familiar figures sweating profusely pushed away the rock that could almost be faked to block the door. Deep bow.

The leader of the black, thin, poor ghost and horse bandit who had only been separated for a long time, frowned slightly, showing a mouthful of black and yellow broken teeth, and said with a smile: "Young master, what a coincidence, this place is the mountain gate of our village."

Li Xian looked at him with a look of surprise, if it wasn't for this "old man" who was sweating, panting endlessly, hunched over with the boss's burden on his back, and a bunch of heads behind him quietly crowding around the crack of the stone, looking over here, He really almost believed in such a sincere acting.

"Coincidentally, there is no such thing as a coincidence! Liao Laoliu." Master Li rubbed his teeth and squeezed out a greeting.
